Exclusion criteria: (1) secondary chyluria due to tumor, infection, surgery and trauma; (2) Patients with abnormal renal function indicated by laboratory examination; (3) Patients with incomplete clinical data or imaging data. Finally, 55 cases were enrolled. There were 24 males and 31 females, ranging in age from 11 to 79 years, with an average age of (44.5±19.3) years.
